I think McSpook should get VIP status on the ban bot, if that feature ever gets fixed.
That makes the press' over reaction even worse.
I hope people with fake accounts there remember always to pick the most loony toons answer possible on these polls. Don't ever accidentally pick something sane. They've had it with this shit and are going to start banning every single wrong thinker.
I doubt they're technically capable of doing that. Remember, their extremely accurate and high tech sock account detection system is a check box on sign-up with "is this a sock account".
I'm not sure why Joe even cares. Sure those accusations and labels suck, but consider the source and move on. His audience and influence far surpass what Era user base is.
Joe was anti-gamergate, went all in with Trump Derangement Syndrome, and I think (don't quote me on this) he defended some SJW shit by saying only bigots didn't like it. He bet heavily on SJW and is now getting fucked by them.
hell, imagine a Batman arc about character who does this, using Batman as his role model. He fights crimes, because crime did lead to his parents death, but he then also goes on to terrorize the Gotham police force because their incompetence also led to his parents’ deaths. It leads to Batman confronting him, and after a cat and mouse chase through the city, each using similar tactics, Batman tricks him into making a similar mistake and proving that everyone is fallible and his crusade is hypocritical. It would even allow Batman to take a new protege if they wanted to. I haven’t followed Batman for years, so I have no idea if he’s still using Robins or not, but there you go.
Another way to take the story is have the villain be correct, and he forces Batman into the position of admitting he's a hypocrite. My one problem with that is that such stories have likely been done. Arkham Asylum is pretty blatant in pointing out that Batman is just as crazy as the villains, but he's allowed to go free because he's rich and targets the right people.
At this point the only way they could make a genuinely "punk" Cyberpunk game is if you were fighting a diversity-pushing corporate empire. Lefty punks sold out to Burger King and Goldman Sachs for the power to stomp their boot on the working class and are still trying to convince the world they didn't. They don't understand most people can see them for who they are.
This is why the original concept for The Last Night could've been great. As far as a cyberpunk setting goes, Japanese mega corporations buying all of the US and putting chips in people's heads if they want to buy things seems far fetched compared to silicon valley hipsters doing the same.
I don't know if I'd like lefty corporations to be the go-to villain du-jour, but it would at least make sense. Instead of some oil baron tearing down the orphanage to turn it into a toxic waste dump, have it be a rainbow haired land whale wanting to tear down the orphanage in order to build a gluten free coffee shop.
"Resembling good Cyberpunk"
What the fuck does that even mean?
Leftist in general, and ResetEra in particular, seem to believe that Cyberpunk is utopian fiction where people with neon hair are free to alter their body in any way they want, while taking big corporations down a peg with
cool cybertech non-violent poetry slams.
He was probably banned for something else. A month is plenty of time to get a ban on another thread.
According to the ban bot, he got a 2 day for aggression due to overzealous THQ sperging.
No facts allowed, it's white people, REEEE!
All the usual suspects from the BCT rushing in there to hit the report button.
legitimate question, what is this discord leak about?
In the past, I've read that people mentioned something something about them sharing child porn/pedo stuff, what exactly happened? And is there a record where i can read it?
I don't have a link to the original leaks. The short version is there was a resetera discord server where they were discussing things like which countries had a low age of consent and which of them they should visit. I think there was also a guy who posted something on Era or Gaf talking about how he might have got a 15 year old pregnant, but I'm not sure about that.
None of it was actionable since it's not proof of anything, but the implication is obvious.
